Address geography: ONS's Address Requirements

The report below was commissioned by ONS to give an up-to-date assessment of the issues surrounding addresses in the UK. It has been produced by Hugh Neffendorf of Katalysis.

The report is designed to give a clear picture of:

• ONS needs for addresses and improvements in address information
• wider government and outside needs for improved addressing
• the state of development of national addressing products and initiatives,
  and their suitability to meet the needs
• options for ONS to pursue
• recommendations for action by ONS
